This is a wonderful machine. My first KitchenAid mixer has lasted for over 40 years. Unfortunately We didn’t bring it with us…. So we purchased this one after realizing that a hand mixer couldn’t do the job this KitchenAid could. Nice, smooth, strong motor makes a batch of 90 cookies with ease. I am concerned the lifting mechanism seems loose yet so far it has given me no reason to complain. I’m also glad to have the extra whisk, bread dough hook, etc. Sams Club definitely had the best price around! Merry Christmas to me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not impressed at all. So excited to buy this unit and it’s just so heavy and awkward. The paddle mixer doesn’t reach half of the stuff on the side or the bottom of the bowl and the bowl is so close to the head of the mixer that it’s virtually impossible to try to use a spatula to help it along

I’ve always wanted one of these stand mixers. Finally decided to get one while it was on major sale. I wish I would have got one years ago. I just got started in sourdough and hand mixing almost deterred me for good. This was a game changer!! The bowl is a little tricky to figure out at first but it doesn’t take long to figure it out. Pro bakers would probably give 3 stars but if you’re just a regular person looking to save time and your arm this is a fantastic buy!!

What's not to like? A great powerhouse in my kitchen. Baked hoards of cookies. Not having to use a hand mixer saved me a lot of time and headaches. This is an upgrade to my other mixer (also a KitchenAid) More power, larger size bowl, loved having the lift arm plus the bonus getting the smaller bowl and utensils! What a deal!

!I remember when I was in my teens the longing to own one of these workhorses of my own. Fast forward to my 20’s when I was finally in a position to purchase a Kitchen Aid for myself. Fast forward to my late 50’s. That same mixer has served me reliably thru 2 children and countless grandchildren. My oldest daughter asked if she could have my mixer so I decided she should have one of her own. I sent her the ice blue model and a cookie recipe to get her started. Here’s to many more years of generational baking to come. Tremendous value in a beautiful package!

The workers over the chiristmas holiday took the time to help me with this mixer because i wanted a black color one. They needed to get the forklift in a bush store because no black color ones were on the floor. After getting their help with getting the perfect gift they have earned my business for good.

Had my old one for many years. This larger version is great for any recipe that is large. Made a few items so far and really like it. No flour storm and whips great for frosi\ting in smaller bowl. Haven't tried bread yet. Keep it on my counter - too heavy to lift from cabinet but it is used often so it is a non issue for me.

Love, love, love the mixer. The big bowl makes it easy to add ingredients while mixing. It seems to mix quicker and is not as noisy as my previous mixer. Love the blue color. Lots of great attachments included with many attachments available for purchase.

Wow!!! Been a KitchenAid mixer owner for 25 years and it’s still going. This new Mixer is such a blessing as I can no longer lift or scoot anything heavy. Will pass my older mixer down to my granddaughter. Highly recommend this new mixer and the price, fantastic!!!!!!

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my nephew. He loved it and sent me a picture of his first food creation, a calzone, using the dough hook and as many accessories as possible. The calzone looked delicious. He told me that this KitchenAid Mixer was going to be his most used kitchen appliance and he plans to experiment with many different dishes.
